Description

1-Azido-2-[2-(2-azidoethoxy)ethoxy]ethane (CAS 59559-06-7) is a symmetric bis-azide PEG linker used in click chemistry and bioconjugation research. It is also known as Azido-PEG2-Azide and Azide-PEG3-Azide. Molecular formula C₆H₁₂N₆O₂; MW 200.20 g/mol.

This compound bears two terminal azide groups flanking a short diethylene glycol spacer. Both azides are reactive toward alkynes and cyclooctynes via copper-catalyzed azide–alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) or strain-promoted SPAAC, yielding stable 1,2,3-triazole linkages. The central PEG backbone imparts aqueous solubility and conformational flexibility to assembled conjugates.

  • Bifunctional crosslinking of two alkyne- or cyclooctyne-bearing biomolecules
  • Construction of PEG-spaced dual-probe or dual-payload conjugates for chemical biology studies
  • Building block for PROTAC, ADC, or other heterobifunctional linker assembly
  • Structure–activity relationship studies requiring symmetric azide-terminated spacers

Each batch is analyzed by HPLC and ¹H NMR, with a Certificate of Analysis provided on shipment. Available from milligram to kilogram scale, with flexible packaging to meet R&D and scale-up requirements.
